Tales of the Reincarnated Lord Chapter 262: Development and improvement

Chapter 262 Development and Improvement

Norton Family Territory, Morgen Hills, heavily guarded glass production base on May 18.

Lorist instructed the silversmith to assemble the two ground lenses. Even with detailed drawings, it took a long time to change and change again, and it was considered to meet the requirements of Lorist.

A telescope with a large and small barrel finally appeared in the hands of Lorist. The old silversmith with a wrinkled forehead dismissed it. After Lorist rejected his request for a beautiful pattern on the barrel, he became His exquisite craftsmanship was not played and he was very embarrassed.

Lorist fiddled with it for a long time, and shoved the silver monoscope in his hand to the technician Mancini next to him: "Look, this is what I call a telescope."

Technician Manchenie looked at the Lorist and raised his telescope to look around, making surprise calls from time to time.

"See, this is the true use of glass, but this telescope is just one of them. You can use lenses to grind lenses. You have to hire some people to specialize in this lens grinding, and think Set its standards. The unevenness of the glass can cause very different effects. Like the drawing I drew, it is a magnifying glass. It can help enlarge objects to make people see clearly. And this one is glasses, like this one. Master Silversmith, old age has poor eyesight, it takes a lot of effort to look at things. With this glasses, he can be as annoyed as he was when he was young, and no longer worry about dazzling ... "

Technician Manchenie bowed his head respectfully to Lorist: "Lord(s), I am really excited and proud that I can work for you. You opened a skylight and let me see a wider sky ... "

Lorist laughed: "Don't talk about the bullshit, just do your job well. Then your task is still very heavy, the current output of Green Glass and Oil Glass is enough, there is no need to expand production, we do n’t You need to use this foreign trade, self-produced and self-sold. The focus is on telescopes, glasses and magnifying glasses, which are the profit growth points of our family's foreign trade in the future.

At present, the most important thing is to pay close attention to the development and experiment of transparent white glass. You already have seen two silver mirrors made of white crystal. When this glass mirror appears, it will bring us a steady stream of sources. gold coin(s). Oil glass has good transparency, but its non-stickiness cannot be used to make mirrors. So you have to think of ways to experiment with some more formulas, and make this transparent white glass as soon as possible.

Another point is to find ways to expand the glass manufacturing specifications. Can the area be increased and the thickness increased? Like a large piece of green glass, we can use it to make a greenhouse, so that you can eat fresh vegetables in winter. In addition, exploring the application of glass in various aspects, such as whether oil glass can make teapots and cups, as well as glass tableware, can bring great profits to our family ...

I leave the glass production base to you. I hope that you can take the initiative to explore the mysteries of glass. Whether it requires funds or human resources, we will meet your requirements. Don't care if the cost of conducting these glass experiments is worth it. Even if it fails, it will only let us understand that this road is not feasible and we should go a different way. And this discovery is also a gain, understand? "

Technologist Manchenie bowed to Lorist gratefully: "Lord(s), please rest assured, I will follow your wishes to conduct experiments and record as soon as possible. I will arrange for someone to do it, and I will not let You are disappointed. "

Lorist nodded: "A few telescopes have been made in the past few days, and the numbers are marked on them. I will send them to the family armed forces and use them at sea Legion. After two days, I will go to Heiluobao, I also need to bring In the past, you would send it after you finished it. It is here for you. "

"Yes, Lord(s)."

As soon as you go out, Schwartz comes to Reported: "Lord(s), Barrek Father come to you, it seems very urgent."

Barrek Father is very urgent, but it is full of joy: "Lord(s), the paper you want has been produced, you see if this is the case."

He took off a copper skin and a waterproof cylinder made of animal skin from his back. After opening the lid, he carefully pulled out a roll of paper from it and opened it gently.

The paper placed in front of Lorist is very similar to the kraft paper used in previous packaging. It is not white in color and is a light brown color, but the surface is smooth and delicate, and it seems to have a little oiliness.

Lorist reached out and touched it a few times, and then instructed Schwartz to bring him ink and quill pen. He wrote a few lines of words on the paper at random, drew a few lines, and then said with satisfaction, "It's not bad, the ink It ’s fast, it ’s not white. Barrek Father, why did you suddenly make this kind of paper? ”

"It was an accident. It was totally an accident." Barrek Father laughed: "Lord(s), because we haven't made much progress in experimenting with papermaking, most of the stoves used for cooking pulp are producing toilet paper. Now the family Territory population is increasing. There is a great demand for this type of toilet paper, and the gains from the purchase and sale of toilet paper also contribute to the research cost of papermaking.

A few days ago, a worker went out to buy a large piece of butter during his lunch break and was ready to take it home. When he came back to the house, something happened. He put the butter on the edge of the cooking stove. As a result, the hot butter from the pool came and the butter melted and no one found it. We stir the pulp after stirring as usual, and then we find that the pulp in this pool is not the kind of loose and soft toilet paper after it dries, but a kind of relatively smooth hard paper ...

We found out that it was the butter that made it look like this, so during this time we were making paper tests with various kinds of fats, and this paper was made with butter, the price was the cheapest The cost is also the lowest. We have calculated that the cost of fifteen pieces of this paper is about one copper coin without counting the labor, and it is only three copper coins. "

Lorist is very happy. The telescope has just been successfully trial-produced, and the breakthrough of papermaking technology here is really good. However, he still put forward new requirements for Barrek Father: "Schwartz, record the rewards for the successful trial production of this paper, Barrek Father rewards one hundred gold fordes, and the remaining meritorious personnel ten gold fordes. Barrek Father, you will have to do some experiments next. , Add some whitening Potion or materials, think of a way to make this paper whiter and more delicate, and thinner than this paper, then it can be considered as a successful production of paper that can be used as our family's fist. >

Also, the production and formulation of this paper need to be kept secret. Schwartz, pass my order, let Potterfang select the old veterans who need to retire from the family armed forces to form a new police battalion, which is responsible for the defensive and vigilant tasks of the paper mill and glass production base here. Nothing will be leaked. "

"Yes, Lord(s), I will let Imperial Guard go to give orders immediately." Schwartz replied.

May 21, Blade Edge Mountain Range, a well-guarded valley.

Here is the new powder gun experimental field. Professor Bob who was brought in by Lorist is doing various gunpowder experiments here.

"Lord Count, I don't really understand why you pay so much attention to gunpowder. In fact, I think gunpowder may have some effect in the military, others are not very useful. Like dwarf , gunpowder has been used for nearly a thousand years , But they have no other way of using it except as a musket. "

On meeting, in addition to giving Lorist a formula of the best proportion of gunpowder he tested, he also raised his own questions.

Lorist laughed, but he didn't answer. He took the gunpowder formula given by Professor Bob, and after looking at it, he removed the egg white item.

Professor Bob protested: "Without egg white, gunpowder powder cannot solidify, and its effect will be greatly reduced."

"No egg white or solidification is needed, and the effect is best when the powder is in a granulated state." Lorist said.

In front of the doubtful Professor Bob, Lorist made the powder powder into granules, and then left to dry.

After two days, Lorist made a few small iron cans, filled the powder gunpowder and hung the lead wire, then wrapped it into a bag and tucked it into a slit cut in a rock cliff, then lit the lead wire .

After a while, a dull explosion came, and the rock cliff in the distance seemed to tremble, and large tracts of rocks fell from the rock cliff. After the dust in the distance stopped, the look of the stone cliff already changed greatly, almost half of what it looked like. Under the cliff there were large chunks of falling stones, like a hill.

"Look, Professor Bob, this is the true power of gunpowder. With gunpowder, we can open mountains and quarry, and build roads and bridges to build houses and mines. It will be very convenient, which saves labor and shortens the construction period. . The role in military, you can see in two days. A new high-powered long-range weapon will appear in Grindia, that is artillery. "Lorist said proudly.

"Artillery?" Professor Bob asked in confusion.

"Yes, artillery," Lorist replied.

May 23, Blade Edge Mountain Range, Ironforge.

For the sake of confidentiality, the family built a fortress castle outside the valley of the black iron refining base. One is to facilitate security guards, and the other is to provide a comfortable living environment for Grandmaster Sid skilled personnel. Lorist With a big swipe, Ironforge became the official name.

"Lord(s), seventeen sets of fine iron standard equipment already were all sent to Silowas Islands. In addition, a variety of standard equipment atlases were drawn. All according to your requirements, the defense force is slightly worse than the white lion standard equipment. Appearance style Gorgeous, beautiful and luxurious decoration, the sale price is basically between 80 and 120 gold fordes. "Grandmaster Sid first reported the first thing to Lorist.

"I'm assured of your business, Grandmaster Sid, you are a professional in this respect, and I fully believe that your decision will give the family the best benefit." Lorist nodded and expressed his appreciation.

Grandmaster Sid is very happy.

"Lord(s), according to the design of your unicycle combined with Chariot Ballista, now the already is finalized, and a total of twenty-four vehicles have been produced. They will be placed in the front, and you will see when you turn over the wall ..."

Twenty-four unique unicycles are arranged in two rows, and the Ballista mounted on the car shines cold in the sun.

Lorist looked up and down and found that these unicycles are all steel-wood structures, especially the unicycle axles, which are specially reinforced by already. It took a few steps to lift a unicycle and it didn't feel so laborious.

Grandmaster Sid introduces next: "Lord(s), the unicycle you designed is really unique. No one has ever thought that a wheel can make a car. The load is high, convenient and flexible. Those unicycles can walk these unicycles. .Lord(s), can I make some unicycles for sale in the future? "

Lorist laughed: "Of course it can, but the unicycles sold must not only be sturdy and durable, but also cheap to sell more. By the way, does Grandmaster Sid, Ballista have any effect on it?"

Grandmaster Sid shook his head and said, "No, it has no effect at all. Some time ago, Doles Lord(s) deliberately found a Chariot Ballista fleet of five hundred people to come and try it. They said that launching Ballista on the ground was more stable, unlike the Chariot car It ’s so small, and sometimes it ’s necessary to cooperate with each other to launch Ballista. There is no such concern when it ’s convenient to move on the ground. ”

"Then Doles thinks that such a single-wheeled Ballista cart also needs a group of five people?" Lorist asked.

"Yes, Lord(s). One person pushes two people, plus two guards, and can be replaced at any time. Doles Lord(s) thinks this combination is the most suitable. And the only disadvantage of this unicycle is that someone must stop when launching. You can hold the car by holding the grip, because the unicycle is too light, "Grandmaster Sid replied.

"That line, let ’s equip Doles with a single-wheeled Ballista cart for the Corps. This guy is also anxious, and anxious to become the soldier Captain soon. Schwartz, record it, order Marek to transfer half from the Chariot Ballista Corps Renma helped Doles to form this one-round Ballista corps, and their remaining shortages were replenished from the recruit training camp by themselves. "

"Yes, Lord(s)." Schwartz said.

Grandmaster Sid stopped in front of Lorist: "Lord(s), wait, do you not notice any difference in this Ballista?"

Well? Lorist took a look at the Ballista mounted on the wheelbarrow. It was no different, and then looked at it suddenly and found that it was different: "Grand-master, it seems that this Ballista is smaller, and it is not as big as the original Ballista?" Right? "

Grandmaster Sid grinned: "Lord(s), it's more than that. If you look at this bolt, although it is also made of iron, it is half the weight of the original iron bolt. It is more stable and accurate when launched ..."

"You improved? But will it be so small that it will affect the direct distance of 300 meters of Ballista?" Lorist asked with some worry.

Grandmaster Sid waved his hand: "Lord(s), in fact, you have always had a misunderstanding, thinking that the 300-meter range of Ballista is a direct distance. In fact, we have found through continuous testing that the true direct distance of Ballista is seven. About 80 meters, the range of 300 meters is actually an arc, but the power of Ballista launch is too strong, this arc is not obvious, everyone thinks it is a direct distance.

We were very surprised when we found this result, so we went to Pete Lord(s) of the Bow Riding Team to help. Let him bring a small team of longbowmen to cooperate with us for experiments, and finally concluded that the so-called longbow with a distance of 100 meters can threaten Golden Knight is also a misinformation.

Of course, the archer like Joske Lord(s) is an exception. All long archers admit that they can aim at a distance of 50 to 60 meters, but the target of 100 meters is not larger than the nail of the little finger. When they aim and shoot They will be raised a little higher and then fired, which shows that the feather arrows fired by their longbow are also an arc.

Like the Ballista shooters, they say that they can't see a single target 300 meters away at all. Basically, they use dense bolt to form a cover-like shot based on the target's location to threaten and damage the target. So please be assured that Lord(s), this time the reduction of Ballista is because we have a better replacement material than the original steel crossbow, which did not affect the power of Ballista. "

"So, who made this new Ballista crossbow?" After Grandmaster Sid's preaching, Lorist came to understand it. Think about it, no one is more than 100 meters away from a soybean. Regardless of whether it is Ballista or longbow, it mainly depends on coverage shooting to form a threat. The precise aiming shooting is really half of luck.

"Lord(s), did you forget the old Yulian? After he was appointed as the head of the workshop producing iron bolt, in his spare time, he has been wondering how to make a better and stronger material than that steel crossbow. Come. After several years of testing, he finally got it out. After inspection, Grandmaster Fellin and I thought that this steel crossbow blade exceeded the performance of the last type of crossbow blade. Therefore, we submitted an application report to request a full replacement. The original Chariot Ballista, but has not yet responded. "Grandmaster Sid answered.

"By the way, the Bronze round tubes named gun barrels on the drawing you brought to me last time Lord(s), I also gave it to Lao Yulian for casting. Now all already are cast. .Lord(s) is going to check it out? Lord(s), I am very surprised, what is the purpose of such a large and heavy Bronze round tube? What does this gun barrel mean? "
